MOG Editorial Review

You might know him best for the iconic "Just a Friend," but Biz Markie had already perfect the art of the off-beat hip-hop song when he put out his debut album, Goin' Off, in 1988. Kicking off with the appropriately goofy "Pickin' Boogers," Biz tears through a set of songs that are as humorous as they are well-crafted, using peppy beats as the vessel of choice for his flow. While it's hard to take him seriously even as he expounds on fame and fortune on "Vapors," it won't stop you from having fun at the very least, especially since Goin' Off features the essence of Biz Markie before he began delving into self-parody.
AMG Review of Goin' Off [Bonus Disc]

All Music Guide

The Cold Chillin' class clown, Biz Markie debuted with Goin' Off, one of the most unrelentingly amusing sets of productions and performances of anyone during hip-hop's golden age. Markie was an oversized teenager with lyrical talents (if not finesse) far beyond his years, and material opposed to most every rapper around -- trading in nightclubs for the mall and striking a pose for picking your nose. Yes, the rhymes were often rudimentary or obvious (and many of the best were actually written by Big Daddy Kane), but his infectious optimism and winning flair (plus the masterful production of Marley Marl) carried Biz Markie far beyond the status of a novelty act. His first single, "Make the Music with Your Mouth, Biz," introduced him as a human beatbox, but he went on from there to encompass a straight-ahead but hilarious game of the dozens ("Nobody Beats the Biz"), a tribute to his favorite haunts around Brooklyn ("Albee Square Mall"), and a track with some wry cynicism about the price of fame ("Vapors"). The rangy Marley Marl cued up some classic backing tracks for these songs, with any hint of braggadocio counteracted by his carnival-esque production sense. [Cold Chillin' reissued the album in a two-CD edition in 2007.]
